So much more than a covers band; The Belgrave House Band are an incredibly talented collective who carefully consider the albums that they perform, and clearly put their heart and soul into doing so. If you’re gonna do ‘Ziggy’ you’ve gotta do it right. They nailed it!

BBC Radio 6 Music’s band of the moment take to the stage at Belgrave Music Hall to promote Independent Venue Week. Having done his live broadcast and compère duties, it was great to see Steve Lamacq in amongst the crowd from the support band onwards.

For the first of the evening’s two intimate shows, Kate Tempest walked on stage and made a simple request. In such a small venue she could see right into the faces of the audience and would rather not perform to a crowd of cameras. She therefore asked us to take one shot for social media and then put our phones away, which we duly did.

Tempest took a moment to compose herself and then unleashed an astounding word-perfect set of poetry and rap from her ‘Let Them Eat Chaos’ and ‘The Book of Traps and Lessons’ albums. The powerful lyrics were beautifully set to the haunting beats and  keyboards of Clare Uchima.

As the gig ended there was momentary silence from an awestruck audience, still processing the barrage of wise words and meaningful messages of a truly mind blowing performance.

I originally had tickets to see Amy Winehouse on her ‘Back to Black’ tour (2006), which was cancelled for reasons that tragically transpired.

The Belgrave House Band beautifully brought Amy’s music back to life, with a faithful interpretation of her debut album; ‘Frank’. As near to the real thing as you’re ever likely to experience live.

The 20th Anniversary of Roni Size / Reprazent’s ‘New Forms’. A pioneering album that brought drum & bass to the mainstream. Performed live at this gig by a solo Roni Size, the timeless tracks sounded as fresh and edgy as ever. New Forms, old classics, timeless.
